I'm just glad to say I was there . . . enjoy.

We were lucky enough to see Spiritualized play the entire "Ladies & Gentlemen We Are Floating in Space" LP at Radio City Hall in NYC last night. It was up there with the best live music I've seen; almost (but not quite) as good as My Bloody Valentine playing Webster Hall last year. Similarly intense at least. A bit less visceral.

They had on stage a full gospel choir from Harlem, and an orchestra. 5000 people were there.

At the end of the set they played two encores. 'Out of Sight' (see above, watch in HD on fullscreen) & then a rousing, almost overwhelming version of "Oh Happy Day" in which the gospel choir unleashed their full power.

There are a bunch of stunning stills from the live stream and a write up (that features a tweet by me!) in this Brooklyn Vegan article: http://www.brooklynvegan.com/archives/2010/07/spiritualized_p_3.html#
